Bluebells Galore!



















Bluebells Galore! - a guided walk through Dibbinsdale - certainly lived up to our hopeful title.

The bluebells were out in their thousands, and we were lucky enough to catch the later flowers on celandines and wood anemone, plus wood sorrel, golden saxifrage, hairy woodrush, barren strawberry and even an early pignut. A splendid display which amply showed why Dibbinsdale is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and Local Nature Reserve.

Forty people turned up for the walk, in excellent weather. In the picture, Pete Miller is welcoming the crowd at Bromborough Rake station and introducing the walk - not actually preaching in Biblical fashion as it appears.
